How to properly maintain the Roller Chain ? First of all, do not directly immerse the chain in strong acid and alkaline cleaners such as diesel, gasoline, kerosene, WD-40 and degreasing agent, because once washed, the inner ring bearing of the chain will be filled with high-viscosity oil, usually called For the butter to fall off, the inner ring will dry out, no matter how much low-viscosity chain oil is added later, it will not be added. You can also use hot soapy water, hand sanitizer, disposable toothbrushes or slightly harder toothbrushes. Rinse directly with water. The cleaning effect is not good. Dry it after washing, otherwise it will rust. Special chain cleaners are generally imported products with very good cleaning effect and good lubrication effect. They are sold in professional stores, but the price is more expensive, and Taobao also sells them. Friends with a better economic foundation can consider them. For metal powder, find a larger container, take a spoon, rinse with boiling water, take out the lifting chain, put it in the water, and then clean it with a harder brush.

 

Then let's take a look at the structure of Roller Chain? The roller link plate is usually formed in a figure eight shape, so that the strength of each part is close, and the inertia and weight during movement are reduced. It is the outer chain plate and the pin shaft, and the inner chain plate and the sleeve are respectively connected by interference fit. The gap between sleeve and pin, sleeve and roller is matched. When the sprocket teeth are engaged with the chain, the friction between the rollers and the teeth is basically rolling friction. Sliding friction between sleeve and roller, pin and sleeve. Compared with belt drive, roller chain drive has the characteristics of compact structure, small load acting on the shaft, large carrying capacity, high efficiency and accurate average transmission ratio.
